It feels lonely in so many ways these days. Know that there are people you know, and a lot you've never met, that care. 

Hang in there! You are cared about and supported ❣️💕 

Possibly some self sabotage? I’m good at that.... hold on and hang in, relief is sweet 👍🏽💪🏽🤙🏽 

Don't give up! This community is INCREDIBLY supportive! I try to write in a private journal everyday. Then, every week on my weigh-in day, I aggregate the best from the week and post it here. It helps keep me on track and accountable and I can only hope that it helps motivate someone else to stay on track.  

We care... Everyone is bat shit crazy right now ...very supportive community... 

it seems to take time to build up support. not sure if its app.glitches or what but often times people don't see posts. I know I don't see everyone. everyone here is supportive and extremely helpful. hang in there.  

I just started on here too. Going alone just doesn't work for me. I stay in denial. Lie to myself. and it just doesn't work for me. I need community support. Every time I am successful in taking off weight at all...is always ALWAYS with help!! Hang in there. Don't leave 

I am just starting and need support as well. Hang in there we will reach our goals one day at a time. 

I'm not sure how it is on the app but from the computer where it says activity from, I always click "everyone". That way I can see all posts, not just the featured ones. I think featured posts get lots of attention over and over and keep rising to the top as people comment. It can be hard when first starting. I don't think I've ever seen a post from you...I'm sorry 💖 

It's obvious you are frustrated at lack of response. When I read this I looked you up because honestly, this is first time I think I've seen your posts. Like Hewbrew said, it takes time to build up a "following." I understand how you feel because I have fallen in that trap myself and then realized that my self worth doesn't depend on who responds or who doesn't. Most people on this site are after a common goal and that is a healthy and fit lifestyle. Some many gravitate towards others who are like minded but that is normal. Hope you stay...we can really be a supportive group! 

I think many of us fall into the trap of scrolling for photos. It’s a social media thing that my brain is trained to look for food photos. I’d say this post is evidence that other do want to help and support! Hang in there! It takes time! 

I'll support ya! Missy from Ohio!  

Lorieb23,Ahealthiegoldy, and Terryosin, hang in there. Posting pictures of your food often catches people's attention where just a simple note doesn't always. I very seldom post pictures, but I do try to notice those who are new and encourage them. I'm sorry I haven't noticed your posts and greeted you. People on FS are incredibly encouraging, so keep posting! Sign up for some of the challenges -- those are very encouraging too! 

Don't give up! I've found what others are saying about the site to be true as well.  

Sorry. The is the first that I've ever seen a post from you. FS doesn't show most posts on the featured section. I've gone a couple of days or more w/o any support but then it happens. And I have been on here too for a long time. Good luck! 

This site is pretty-cool. Although, I"m not here for attention, I am here to log in my calorie diary and to follow like-minded ppl that have similar issues as I do and eat what I like to eat too. The food pix are nice, but the progress is what motivates me. It's nice to see that the majority of ppl on here make great progress and reach their goals bc they work hard to get to them. I too hope to make my goal(s) within reasonable time-frame(s). :) 

You aren't "following" anyone. If you begin by following others and comment on their posts, then they will begin to see your posts and likely will begin to follow you too. That's the way the posts show up. Sometimes we have to step out and make ourselves more visible if we hope to be seen. 

Sometimes I post hoping for answers/responses, but sometimes no one responds :( I usually respond if someone asks for support or if someone posts something interesting. 

The support is hear. I was working my way around this site. But found out that having that support does help. I would love to follow you. I just never seen or remember seeing any of your post.. I hope you stay. Take care. 

Also. when I come in I go to those I follow and there are names that I'm not. so the one that I reconize I will say something or support. But then this does not always work either. so when I don't here from them then I just want comment, however I will support. Then I go to those post that are featured. and I just support them. After all this is said and done. I have only one special lady sometime two that will say anything. But I'm ok with that. Before I had no one interested. But I can say I do have those that will take the time to click support button and that help me too.
